Being a proud Sobriety Sister means walking the Path of Recovery by, for, and with other women. In this circle, I learned how essential it is to be heard, respected, and accepted. Through the power of shared truth and genuine concern, I found the strength to cut addiction’s grip on my spirit.
At 75, becoming free from the obsession and danger of addiction is nothing short of a miracle. I just wanted to die with Dignity—I never imagined I would regain my Self-Respect and live with Dignity again.
I didn’t expect to feel that I Belonged. But it was here, that I discovered I didn’t need to change who I was to Fit-In. Even without formal promotion of Recovery Steps or Statements, Sobriety Sisters live the Truths of Recovery daily—the learning of how to Love Ourselves First, as we are.
There’s an Authenticity in our community that comes from shared suffering and shared healing. In this space, I’ve been able to claim my truth, without judgment. Sobriety Sisters meetings offer a sanctuary—an oasis in the desert of addiction.
If you’re searching for connection, healing, or a place where your truth is welcome, I invite you to come and see for yourself. I’ve learned that I can build sustainable happiness, one day at a time. It is this Awareness which fuels my Gratitude.
I’m so lucky to be a Sobriety Sister—my Family of Choice.
